\ud83c\udfaf Goal: To make arbitration rules uniform across countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. UNCITRAL Conciliation Rules (1980)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\udd1d Conciliation is a peaceful settlement method where parties negotiate with the help of a neutral conciliator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of going to court, they appoint a conciliator \ud83e\uddd1\u200d\u2696\ufe0f who helps them talk and reach a mutual settlement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Purpose of Model Law & Rules<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcd0 Together, they provide a unified legal framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
